I have a remote desktop connection (from my home) to the company's server. On this I opened a Remote Desktop Connection Manager and inside this connect to a specific server.
I was busy copying a file but this task never ends. So I kill the process and now I have a blue screen and no more taskbar. Very frustrating. When I try CTRL+ALT+END (=CTRL+ALT+DEL) this is executed on the main server and not the server which gives me the blue screen. I don't know if I'm clear.
I know I should have keep Task Manager open and type Run... explorer.exe but I closed it.
Any help is really appreciated!

You can try to disconnect/terminate session and connect again and log in with different user this time - this should start another explorer.exe process and give you full GUI. If this remote server has Remote Procedure Calls enabled and you have proper right you can try to use this guide: http://anandthearchitect.wordpress.com/2008/08/01/how-to-logoff-remote-desktop-sessions-via-command-line-tools/ and log off the session remotely.

. If it will require from you the remote server admin rights to do so - then use commandRUN AS
to startRWINSTA
as specific user.
